Hi Ramesh, Just a quick question the boot log showed there were a lot of keys not found in the registry with “security “ in the keys description. Would recreating these keys be worth trying. Forgive my ignorance on the matter if this proves to be a daft question.. Also when using the Robo command the contents of folder was updated not the whole security folder replaced. Is replacing the whole folder worth a try? Thank you Frank

You're welcome, Frank. Hopefully, the 23H2 "Moment 5" update (which might be released in the 1st quarter of 2024) addresses this.

Thank you very much for all your help. Maybe a Windows update will patch this in the future as there are lots of searches online relating to this issue. Regards Frank

Hi Frank, Everything seems to load perfectly, but the service terminates anyway. This is strange. Unfortunately, we don't have a fix for this, at least as of now.

Those entries have no significance. Those entries show up in my system as well. You'll see a lot of Not Found entries for any operation you do. Usually, most of those entries have no significance.

You may try this if possible.

Download this REG file and save it to a folder named c:\reg\

Launch AdvancedRun (from Nirsoft) and start cmd.exe as TrustedInstaller.

In the TrustedInstaller Command Prompt, run:

reg.exe import c:\reg\securityhealth.reg
exit

This restores some essential registry keys used by Defender.
